The Improbable Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: Tales of Mystery and the Imagination Detailing the Adventures of the World's Most Famous Detective, Mr. by
5.0
What can I say? I love fanfiction and this was an excellent collection. Not all the stories are amazing, but there's enough bangers in this anthology that'll I'll probably listening/reading through it again sometime. Many of the stories have fantastic elements, but, much to my surprise, not all.
The audio does not include the Stephen King story, but that's one of the weakest of the collection. (Very odd portrayal of the duo, Dr. Watson solves the case while Holmes has an allergic reaction to cats swarming him.) Several of the stories were also published in Shadows of Baker Street and Gaslight Grimoire. But there's a new one from Barbara Hambly, who is always a delight to read, and her take on the Chthulu mythos was absolutely fabulous. I've not read Dominic Green before but his Professor Challenger/Holmes crossover had me cackling the whole way through.
This was just plain fun! Mummies and pirates and dinosaurs, oh my!
